Ivy
League Champs: Football
and Volleyball
Penn Football ended a perfect
season with Saturday's 59-7 win over Cornell. The Quakers
capped off the most successful four-year run of any team in
Ivy League history. They recorded their first perfect overall
season since 1994, finishing at 10-0 overall, 7-0 in the League and
as Ancient Eight champs (both for the second-straight year).
The Class of 2004 ended the greatest run in Penn's modern history
and in Ivy history, as the seniors finished their careers with
an overall record of 34-5 (.872), placing the team fifth in
Penn history and first during the Al Bagnoli era. They also
went undefeated at home, winning all 19 games, becoming the
first four-year team to win every game at Franklin Field. The
seniors became the fourth Penn class to win three Ivy League
titles.
The Penn Volleyball team celebrated
Senior Night in grand style as they beat Princeton 3-1
at the Palestra last Wednesday. The women claimed the outright
Ivy title with that victory. Penn has now won three-straight
Ivy titles for the first time. The Class of 2004 finished their careers
with an overall record of 42-7 (.857) and recorded their third
20+ win season under Head Coach Kerry Major Carr. The
first round of the NCAA Volleyball Championship begins
Friday, December 5.
